5. He had the whole movie memorized; literally, he could recite whole chucks of dialogue at the drop of a hat. In the van days, Pete used to amuse himself by starting at the beginning and going until the end, including the songs. He still wasn't allowed to watch it within five miles of an FOB tour bus, band meeting, recording studio or house. Pete's maybe still a little bitter about it.
4. The tattoos say it all, really.
3. That time where he ran into Tim Burton at the MTV Movie Awards; the less said about it, the better, but at least Tim had decided not to press charges when all was said and done.
2. His insistence on calling Patrick 'Sally'; "We're destined to be together, 'Trick just like them. Of course you're the Sally to my Jack." His biggest mistake, Pete had reflected later on, was saying it in front of Joe, who had immediately hooted with glee and had started ragging on Patrick. By the time they went to sound check, there had already been three brawls, two verbal beatings and numerous death threats.
Joe started on Patrick in the middle of sound check and the squeal as Patrick flung his guitar had everyone recoiling -but not as much as when they ended up crashing into Andy's kit. There was a dead silence as Andy got to his feet and even Patrick's infamous temper wasn't proof against the maniacal gleam in the drummer's eyes. Pete proved is undying love by jumping in front of Patrick right as Andy reached him and Joe.
The resulting black eye had taken days to fade, but the upshot was that Patrick let him call him 'Sally' when they were alone. And it was a special occasion. Whatever, Pete will take what he can get.
1. He campaigned long and hard to name Bronx 'Burton', but Patrick and Ashlee both put their feet down. The baby would get enough grief in between being the kid of that gay couple in Fall Out Boy and that chick who got caught lip syncing on SNL, there was no need to make it worse by making him the living recipient of his father's rampant fanboy-ism.
Pete pouted and whined, but it didn't work and he eventually admitted defeat.
He still calls Bronx 'Burton' sometimes when they're alone, though.
